I am an old customer of HomeShop18. However, earlier I was not required to pay any Tax. Why am I being charged Tax now?

The Tax amount is charged by the seller. Either the seller is paying the Tax amount in full on his own or charging a fraction of amount of the total Tax payable on the product, from the end customer. In case of the latter, a customer may be required to pay part of the total Tax amount during the shopping on HomeShop18 platforms. The seller will be depositing the total Tax amount payable on the product with the respective State Government.
